Biological activities

Repaglinide is a potent short-acting insulin secretagogue. Repaglinide acts by closing ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels in the plasma membrane of the pancreatic beta cell.[1] Repaglinide is an antidiabetic drug. The IC50 of repaglinide is 5 nM against KATP channel-blocking effect in normal glucose.[2] Repaglinide dose-dependently inhibits whole-cell Kir6.2/SUR1 currents with an IC50 of 21 nM.[3] Repaglinide prevents the binding of [3H]glibenclamide to SUR1 with an IC50 of 1.6 µM.[4] In cell-attached membrane patches of newborn rat islet cells repaglinide at the dose of 10 nM decreases the open probability of single ATP-sensitive K+-channel to approximately 10% of the activity. Repaglinide induces a concentration-dependent increase in intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]ι) with an IC50 of 0.5 nM.[5] Repaglinide causes a more rapid increase in plasma insulin levels in rats.[6] [19F]Repaglinide induces a complete monophasic inhibition curve with a K3α of 134 nM.[7]

Protocols

In vivo: Repaglinide is dissolved in isotonic saline containing 5% ethanol.[7]
